But there’s a lot more to this place than a beautiful view!
Did you know Knik Glacier stretches roughly 25 miles through the Chugach Mountains? Or that its brilliant blue ice gets its color from the way dense glacier ice absorbs light?
And despite looking completely still, glaciers are constantly moving and reshaping the landscape around them.
